Subject: empty/nil in table cells
Date: Thu, 9 Jul 2020 12:08:44 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <e39926eb-5cf3-1fd9-6200-8102b5eb3908@anche.no> (raw)

Hi people,

I've been experimenting with associating the empty cell with the value 
nil, both ways, and it simplifies a lot writing functions. also, I've 
removed the error generation when reading from outside the table 
(instead of giving up with a user-error, I now get a nil).

it works for me, and I don't see counterindications.  is it worthwhile, 
offering you the patch?

MF
